Rock Band Next Week: Broken Bejamins And Chained Alices

New albums from Alice in Chains and Breaking Benjamin prompt new music from the former and a three-track debut pack for the latter in next week's Rock Band Music Store Update.

Breaking Benjamin's "Dear Agony" and Alice in Chains' first album in 14 years, "Black Gives Way to Blue" both hit music stores, iTunes, and torrent sites next week, and Harmonix is giving both bands their due in order to celebrate. Alice in Chains gets five new songs, including "Rooster", "Check my Brain", and my personal favourite, "Would". Breaking Benjamin breaks in with a triple pack consisting of "I Will Not Bow", "So Cold" and "The Diary of Jane".

Along with those two bands we've got one song from Just Kait, two from Kula Shaker and a couple of new Foo Fighters tunes for Rock Band Unplugged.

Nice. I was just listening to Kula Shaker thinking how awesome it would be if they made it to Rock Band. Never thought there was a chance of hell of it ever happening though. That along with Alice in Chains and Breaking Benjamin has made me very poor next week.

During a recent Samsung event, Twitch megastar Tyler “Ninja” Blevins said he purposely avoids streaming with “female gamers.” The site’s number-one streamer said that he believes if he invited women on his channel, the gossip mill would immediately begin cranking out videos suggesting that Ninja is in romantic relationships with them.
On the one hand, he’s probably right about that. On the other hand, when you’re the most popular streamer on earth, everything you do has consequences.

I still remember when it was an accepted argument that gaming was an antisocial activity. "Go outside nerds," was the common style of refrain you'd hear on a school playground. It's the kind of argument that still gets trotted out today from people who have little experience of gaming, and even less appreciation for the complexity of games.
